Some ancient civilization, their name escapes me, had the first written laws. One of them was "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth,". This means that if someone hit you in the eye and damaged it- the same thing would happen to you.

Basically you get what you give. If that makes sense.

So Gandhi believed that this rule was wrong. That's basically it.
